White Chapel Blvd. LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lots 1 and 2, Thrasher Addition LAND USE CATEGORY: Mixed Use CURRENT ZONING: “AG” Agricultural District REQUESTED ZONING: “SF-20A” Single Family Residential HISTORY: -The plat showing for Thrasher Addition was approved in September 1986 (ZA86-041). SOUTHLAKE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: Consolidated Future Land Use Plan The future land use designation for the site is “Mixed Use”. The purpose of the Mixed Use category is to provide an option for large scale, master‐planned, mixed use developments that combine land uses such as office facilities, shopping, dining, parks, and residential uses. The range of activities permitted, the diverse natural features, and the varying proximity to thoroughfares of areas in the Mixed Use category necessitates comprehensively planned and coordinated development. New development must be compatible with and not intrusive to existing development. Further, special attention should be placed on the design and transition between different uses. Typically, the Mixed Use designation is intended for medium‐ to higher‐intensity office buildings, hotels, commercial activities, retail centers, and residential uses. Nuisance‐free, wholly enclosed light manufacturing and assembly uses that have no outdoor storage are permitted if designed to be compatible with adjacent uses. Other suitable activities are those permitted in the Public Parks/Open Space, Public/Semi‐Public, Low Density Residential, Medium Density Residential, Retail Commercial, and Office Commercial categories. Mobility & Master Thoroughfare Plan The property is accessed off of N. White Chapel Blvd. This section of N. White Chapel Blvd. is designated as an “A4D” 4-lane divided arterial with 88 feet of right of way. Pathways Master Plan & Sidewalk Plan The Pathways Master Plan calls for a less than 8 ft. sidewalk along the east side of N. White Chapel Blvd. The applicant is showing a 5 ft. sidewalk along N. White Chapel Blvd. and along both sides of the proposed cul-de-sac street. Case No. Attachment A ZA24-0050 Page 2 UTILITIES: There is a 12” water line along N. White Chapel and an 8” sanitary sewer line in E. Kirkwood Blvd. 8” water and sanitary sewer lines will be extended through the proposed cul-de-sac to provide service to the lots. DRAINAGE: Lots 1, 2 & 4 drain toward the proposed street and into the N. White Chapel drainage system. Lot 3 drain toward E. Kirkwood Blvd drainage system. Drainage study shows no detention structure is needed. This will be further evaluated with the constructions plans prior to development. TREE PRESERVATION: There is 22% of existing tree cover and a minimum of 60% of the tree cover is required to be preserved. A total of 87% of the existing tree cover is proposed to be removed and 13% is proposed to be preserved. The applicant has requested a variance.
